You should change your "Official Host Name" to "domain.com", and put
"mail.domain.com" as an alias. Here's the relevant Ipswitch KB article:
http://support.ipswitch.com/kb/IM-19991007-DM01.htm
You may need to modify your DNS settings, too... have an MX record for
"domain.com" pointing to your A record for the "mail" machine.
Hope this helps,
